Chapter 271 Borrowing a Boat to the Island

"Very good. Now I want you to go to a place. That place will be our Dark Tower's headquarters in the south."

"I wonder where it is?"

"Floating Cloud Island."

One of the people present was shocked after hearing Yue Fuli's words and asked, "Floating Cloud Island? Is it the Hua family's Floating Cloud Island?"

"Yes, it is the Hua family's Floating Cloud Island."

After hearing this, the man couldn't help but frowned and asked in confusion, "Master, since that's the Hua family's territory, what are we going to do there? They can't be asking us to take over Floating Cloud Island, right?"

"You're overthinking it. That place is my territory now. Otherwise, I wouldn't let you come here."

"OP, when can we go over there? This place can't accommodate so many of us, so..." Wuxin felt a little embarrassed about his impatience.

"I didn't expect you to arrive so soon, and I haven't arranged a boat yet. So, I'll go see if there's a boat available. If I can borrow one, you can go today. If not, you can wait until tomorrow. I'll arrange a place for you to stay tonight."

When he heard that they were going to find a boat, Wu Xin continued, "Master, I wonder where you are going to find a boat. I'll go with you."

"Go ask the Hua family."

Wuxin took his two brothers and followed Yue Fuli to the Hua family.

Hua Buqi happened to be at home. Seeing Yue Fuli in men's clothing, she was surprised and asked, "Mr. Li, what are you doing?"

"Miss Hua, is your father home? I want to go to Floating Cloud Island. I wonder if you have any spare boats I can borrow."

"You want to borrow a boat."

"yes."

"Wait a moment, I'll go call my dad." Hua Buqi went to call someone.

Not long after, Hua Tingzhou returned with his daughter. Seeing Yue Fuli, he smiled and said, "Mr. Li, our Hua Mansion is so prosperous now that we have come to visit you."

"Mr. Hua, you're too polite. I wouldn't come to you for no reason."

"Sure, sure. Buqi just told me that you guys want to borrow the boat."

"right!"

"How long will you borrow it for?"

After hearing this, Yue Fuli's eyes flickered slightly, and she asked tentatively, "Mr. Hua, it's like this. We will definitely have to go back and forth to Floating Cloud Island frequently in the future. If possible, I would like to buy a boat. I wonder if Mr. Hua can introduce me to a boat seller?"

"You want to buy a boat?" Hua Tingzhou was slightly stunned. She thought Yue Fuli wanted to rent a boat, but she didn't expect that she would actually want to buy a boat.

This big ship is difficult to handle, but the small boat is no problem.

"Yes, if there is one, I would like to buy a boat so that it will be convenient for me to travel back and forth."

"That's true. However, we don't have any large ships at the moment, but a small boat should be fine. If you're interested, Master Li, I'll take you to see it now."

"Sure." Yue Fuli nodded. If she couldn't afford a large boat, it would be a good idea to buy a few small boats as an emergency measure. Her people would be traveling back and forth to Floating Cloud Island frequently, and having her own boat would be much more convenient.

Even if she couldn't buy a suitable boat, she could rent one first. If she really wanted to borrow one, Hua Tingzhou would definitely not refuse, but it would still be a bit awkward.

Hua Tingzhou brought Yue Fuli to the riverside and pointed at the few small boats moored on the shore. He said, "There are only a few small boats left now. If you need a larger boat, you can pay a deposit first and have the manufacturer build one."

"I wonder how much this boat will sell for?"

"This boat is not worth much. Mr. Li is the savior of my Hua family, so it's okay to give you one."
